Dell shares traded as high as $114.44 intraday and as low as $108.10. At session lows, the price tested its key 200-day moving average at $108.02 and found willing buyers (it closed at $110.74)
With the price now trading near $118, the price is moving away from that 200 day moving average. On the top side, the 100 day moving average comes in at $127.51.
